Oklahoma Baculite fossil specimen

Oklahoma Baculite Identification

Baculite is a realistic Oklahoma fossil profile built around straight-shelled ammonite common in western seaway chalk and shale. In this state, success usually comes from learning chalk beds, badlands mudstones, and river gravels, then timing runoff, reservoir drawdown, surf cuts, or road work that exposes fresh fossil-bearing rock instead of hunting blindly.
